It seems rather obvious that if you don't make your payments, the lender will foreclose and you will be evicted from your home. But, what if the owner doesn't live there? What about the landlords that have failed to meet their obligations, and their renters who have paid the rent? The system seems to be breaking down when innocent people, who have met their financial obligations, are thrown out on the street.
Sheriff Thomas Dart, in Cook County, has had an attack of conscience and he has announced that he just won't evict innocent people from their homes anymore. He is suspending foreclosure evictions in Cook County, which includes the city of Chicago. He could find himself locked up in his own jail for ignoring eviction orders, but this wouldn't be the first time a sheriff spent time behind bars for refusing to evict people from their homes. Are you curious to know what happened to the last lawman who took a similar stand?
